The Trouble with Wings

Jillian Bright has lived and loved the world over, wild and free, her soul awakened and destroyed, mended and strengthened. From empowering women through custom-made bikinis in Costa Rica to listening to a Bulgarian astrologer predict her son's unplanned birth, her journey took her from country-to-country, unveiling passion and purpose. But it was the various crossroads along the way that taught her the most meaningful lesson: It's never the first step off the cliff that's the most terrifying. It isn't even the free fall that happens afterward. The scariest part is the crash landing when self-doubt makes you think that maybe you can't actually fly. That's when you begin to understand that you have to grow your own wings.

That's why when Jillian found herself in South America, robbed of everything that mattered most and facing the biggest crossroads of her life, she went all in—and dived off the cliff.

The Trouble with Wings is a deeply honest and stirring memoir about living life from your heart and trusting yourself to say yes—even when it means you have to risk it all.
